ath79: support for TP-Link EAP225-Wall v2 TP-Link EAP225-Wall v2 is an AC1200 (802.11ac Wave-2) wall plate access point. UART access and debricking require fine soldering. The device was kindly provided for porting by Stijn Segers. Device specifications: * SoC: QCA9561 @ 775MHz * RAM: 128MiB DDR2 * Flash: 16MiB SPI-NOR (GD25Q127CSIG) * Wireless 2.4GHz (SoC): b/g/n, 2x2 * Wireless 5Ghz (QCA9886): a/n/ac, 2x2 MU-MIMO * Ethernet (SoC): 4× 100Mbps * Eth0 (back): 802.3af/at PoE in * Eth1, Eth2 (bottom) * Eth3 (bottom): PoE out (can be toggled by GPIO) * One status LED * Two buttons (both work as failsafe) * LED button, implemented as KEY_BRIGHTNESS_TOGGLE * Reset button Flashing instructions, requires recent firmware (tested on 1.20.0): * ssh into target device and run `cliclientd stopcs` * Upgrade with factory image via web interface Debricking: * Serial port can be soldered on PCB J4 (1: TXD, 2: RXD, 3: GND, 4: VCC) * Bridge unpopulated resistors R162 (TXD) and R165 (RXD) Do NOT bridge R164 * Use 3.3V, 115200 baud, 8n1 * Interrupt bootloader by holding CTRL+B during boot * tftp initramfs to flash via sysupgrade or LuCI web interface MAC addresses: MAC address (as on device label) is stored in device info partition at an offset of 8 bytes. ath9k device has same address as ethernet, ath10k uses address incremented by 1.
